Anyone else have a 2014 Frozen Brilliant White Limited Edition?

I'm new to the forum and wanted to ask if anyone else has (or knows someone who has) a 2014 Frozen Brilliant White 650? When I bought it last year I mostly just liked the look of the spec, but then found it's a 1 of 100 special edition. I have not yet seen or heard of another one, so wanted to check here.

No one else ever even seen or heard of one? Seems my car is more rare than I had assumed!

Seems like I saw one somewhere, but it's no doubt rare. Not personally a fan of flat paint.

Thanks for the response Opie55. BMW has started making more of these matte finishes, and I can say I am personally a fan of how they look but now that I've owned one......never again. I'll admire others instead!

Never seen any.... Most of the people I know that prefer frozen/flat go with matte PPF or a vinyl wraps. From what I've heard, actual frozen/flat paint is pain in the ass to maintain and repairs can be costly.

only reason I would go frozen (ppf wrap) is because my metallic black itself is too much work itself

My frozen paint gets lots of compliments but is definitely a pain to maintain, and after someone hit me the shop took 4 months to get the job done mostly working to get the paint finish right. So....agreed for sure!!
